I can then pick a few unsuspecting targets and work out which ones are likely to have better quality booze and zero standards regarding day time drinking.Parental Parodyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09634901143397732983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5578036941545196789.post-84881753532941434462014-02-15T10:07:49.679+08:002014-02-15T10:07:49.679+08:00Totally.
